Legendary guitarist Ritchie Blackmore made a surprise return to the stage with Deep Purple, joining them for an encore performance of 'Smoke on the Water' at a concert in New York. This marks his first appearance with the band since 1993. The reunion was made possible after Blackmore reached out to the band, asking if he could join them for an encore without any pressure. Despite his ongoing health issues, Blackmore performed thanks to a shot he received before the show.
